PermaLife™ Landscape Mulch™ saves water, SoftStuff™ makes playgrounds 50%-70% safer than even other rubber mulches!
It's also the only recycled rubber mulch with Microban® antimicrobial protection. Incorporated into the color coating,
Microban kills potentially harmful bacteria, making their colors last longer.
PermaLife Mulch™ Provides Long Lasting Beauty & Benefits
 The tests are in, and wood mulch can kill your trees and shrubs!
Yes, mulch is supposed to retain moisture in the soil, reducing water use.
Many regions have been losing plants, shrubs and even trees to harmful fungus and molds
which can grow on cedar and other wood mulch, and attack sensitive roots. Not to mention the termites,
ants and other insects and rodents who love wood mulch. The exclusive use of Microban®
in the coating on PermaLife Landscape Mulch won't allow fungus and mold to grow and destroy, lasting for 8-10+ years
instead of around 4-6 months like many typical wood mulches. Read more about PermaLife Mulch on our
Landscaping page.
It's Really Quite Simple... PermaLife SoftStuff™ Provides
the BEST Playground Safety, at ANY price!
Other manufacturers may try to sell a "one-size fits-all" recycled mulch product
for both landscape mulch and playground safety. SoftStuff™
playground safety surfacing is ASTM tested and IPEMA certified,
and the best loose-fill protection available, anywhere.
The smaller particles reduce choke hazards, while still being heavy enough to stay in place in wind and rain.
When a child falls into PermaLife SoftStuff™, it displaces just enough upon impact to reduce
head impact and fall height injuries 200% to 500% (or more) over other playground safety surfaces.
We have more information about PermaLife SoftStuff™ on our
Playgrounds page.
PermaLife SportsFill™ with Microban®
for synthetic turf is so effective, it's used in 30 out of the 32 US professional
football fields with artificial turf. PermaLife SportsFill™ provides safety by cushioning impact,
and kills potentially harmful microbes and bacteria in sports fields for football, baseball and soccer.
It was selected to deal with staphylococcus and streptococcus bacteria, and keeping the playing fields up to 30 degress cooler in the summer sun.
Whether it's a sports field at a professional venue or your local school, there's no better choice than PermaLife SportsFill™.
Did You Know...?
Most Other Playground Safety Surfaces Provide 2% PROBABILITY of FATAL Injury?
At the max. height other products are tested as “safe,” many products fall into the critical area near the 1,000 max. HIC score,
which carries with it the widely unknown 2% probability that 1-in-50 kids could die from falling on those surfaces
PermaLife SoftStuff™ is the SAFEST Playground Safety Surface Available ANYWHERE?
The HIC (Head Injury Criterion) scores for SoftStuff are much better than ANY other rubber mulch or safety surfacing
which at 6 inch depth offers ASTM F1292-09 HIC scores in the high 600’s to low 700’s
SoftStuff™ is the ONLY Surfacing Whose Safety EXCEEDS N.A. Testing Lab Capabilities?
Check out page 4 of our 6-inch independent lab test on our Test Data page, performed by TÜV SÜD,
which is the official lab for IPEMA (International Play Equipment Manufacturers Association) testing
Tests Prove that SoftStuff™ is Safer at 17 Feet than Other Rubber Mulches at 12 Feet?
Most companies won't talk about the “kick-out” effect present in ALL loose-fill safety surfaces, which effectively
reduce their safety in real life applications. Why would you want to consider anything else to provide safety for our most valuable resource, our children?
We're the Only Company to PROVE Our Product Safety by Posting COMPLETE Test Data?
Most other companies tell you their product is safe and won't provide their complete test data for comparison, while
most other safety surfacing claims merely refer to their compliance to the older & outdated ASTM F1292-04 standards
SoftStuff™ Has EXCLUSIVE Cryogenic Processing & Microban® Antimicrobial Protection?
We don't have a “one-size-fits-all” product which may be too large for playgrounds & too small to be effective for landscaping,
where competitor's larger pieces on playgrounds reduce impact safety & smaller pieces used as a landscaping mulch can blow or wash away more easily
The Smaller Size & Shape of SoftStuff™ Reduce Choke Hazards & “Kick-Out” Effect?
For younger children & toddlers, this is an important factor
because kids have choked on other mulch products, and the kick-out or high and low areas on other
larger rubber mulches can be as much as ±4˝, where SoftStuff is normally ±2˝ variance
PermaLife Pays For Itself Within 2-3 Years Over Other Competing Products?
The safety of other playground surfacing & landscaping mulch products are questionable,
requiring frequent re-topping to maintain proper safety & effectiveness, and after factoring in the costs of
material, delivery & installation... PermaLife actually SAVES you money!
Organic Pigments Typically Used Develop Microbes When Exposed to Heat, Air & Moisture?
Pretty much all rubber mulches use mineral-based or organic pigments which, as we probably learned in
high school biology class, develop microbes of some sort when exposed to heat, air & moisture... whether it's mold, fungus, mildew or bacteria.
Without antimicrobial added to the paint, like SoftStuff provides, these microbes can eat away
& deteriorate the color coating, fairly rapidly in some cases
